Commissioner Liz steps back from new Water Quality Advisory Committee; commission asked to name liaison
Summary
Commissioner Liz reported on the town’s new Water Quality Advisory Committee, announced she is stepping back because of a job promotion (though reappointed to the Conservation Commission), and urged the commission to identify another member to serve on the advisory group.
Commissioner Liz updated the Dartmouth Conservation Commission on the first meeting of the Water Quality Advisory Committee and said she will step back from that committee because a recent promotion will limit her evening availability.
Liz said the advisory committee expanded to about 27 members and includes representatives from the DPW, board of health, CPC and planning board; members' priorities range from Title V/nitrogen concerns to drinking water education and outreach. She encouraged the commission to identify a different commissioner to serve as a liaison to the advisory committee; staff said the next advisory committee meeting is July 28 at Town Hall, Room 304.
Liz also said she has been reappointed to the conservation commission for a three‑year term and expects to remain active with the commission. The commission thanked her for past participation on the advisory committee and noted the committee will likely meet biweekly initially while it organizes subcommittees and priorities.
The update was informational; no action was taken beyond asking commissioners to consider serving as the town's conservation liaison to the Water Quality Advisory Committee.
